How do I upgrade my edition?

[Dark Sun Gwyndolin]

So, I got this game awhile ago from Humble Bundle, and now that there's a sale on and I have a better computer, I thought now was a good time to play it.

One problem, however. I own the base game and three random cars from Humble... and thus it won't let me purchase the GotY Edition (containing Season 1-4, which I presume would be most of the DLC). And none of the DLC is on sale, nor is there an option to purchase it in a bundle.

Is there any way to get the Season 1-4 content at a discount? Because if not... that's a lost sale, because there's no way I'm spending $140 CAD on all the DLC individually. Giving consumers with the base version of the game a way to upgrade to the full version is basic gaming marketing.

EDIT: I found the Season 1-4 Pass in the DLC... but it's MORE expensive than the GotY. I suppose I could have Steam Support delete the game from my account...

Googled a bit, to confirm it's the only solution.

So I removed Dirt Rally 2.0 from my library via the support page.
Bought the Game of the Year Edition for 13,74€.
Works, is in my library, still installed, and all DLC is mine.
In Germany, to whom it may concern.

So I can confirm this method works.

Super clunky, super shady but whatever, I want all cars and tracks (as it was normal back in the day when I was young...)

i will never buy another codemasters game until it has a goty edition. Never again

I normally always wait for discounted GOTYs, especially with publishers that ride the DLC train as hard as Codemasters.
But Dirt Rally 2.0 was in the humble bundle (which became a DLC seller product since IGN bought them .. like a crack dealer. Here is the base game for free, now buy all that Paradox or Codemasters DLC) so I already owned the naked base game.

Too bad kids and the masses just buy into this new normality, so don't expect change anytime soon.

This is just absolutely disgusting and Codemasters should be ashamed that they are forcing people that actually bought the game through this ♥♥♥♥, because they are too greedy and stupid to discount the DLC along with the GOTY version.

Good to know never to buy any of their future games on release.

Definitely the best option at this point; its just burning money buying the base game when you then have to re-buy (if even possible) the whole game again when GOTY comes out.

The OP already alluded to this, for those who already own only the base game:

It's not on sale, but this YOP doesn't cost very much more than the GOTY edition.

So this will have all the same content as the Goty version??
